Comic 20: Mistletoe Belts
Posted by admin on December 22nd, 2010I heard a story about a convent in Nashville, Tennessee yesterday. The Dominican Sisters of St. Cecilia are bucking the slow death of most convents around America. The average age of a St. Cecilia nun is 36, four decades younger than the national average! These nuns play basketball and say things to NPR interviewers like “being a nun is better than someone leaving a message on your Facebook wall.” Like, totally, nun.
Maybe this Tennesse convent is a sign of a nun resurgence, which is awesome for Jesus, because apparently, being a nun means “you are a spouse of Christ.”
That means Jesus Christ is the biggest pimp of all time.
It also means that a lot of women get to celebrate their husband’s birthday on December 25th. And look, if you give up sex with all living men for a dude who died centuries ago, you have every right to celebrate.
The rest of us? We have no clue why we’re celebrating.
Merry Christmas!
